The Mitsubishi Pajero is an off-road vehicle from the Japanese automaker Mitsubishi Motors , which has been in production since spring 1982. From the beginning of 1983 it was also available worldwide. Since then, the car has been built in four generations.
Its name was borrowed from the Leopardus colocolo pajeros , who lives in the impassable mountain ranges of South America. The Pajero gained public fame through its numerous successes in the toughest motorsport rally in the world, the Paris-Dakar rally .
In Spanish-speaking countries as well as in North America, the pajero is called Montero because the Spanish word pajero means " wanker " in the vulgar language . In the UK the model is called the Shogun .
The first generation had the same chassis as the L200 pickup and the L300 minibus and was later reissued by Hyundai as the Hyundai Galloper with a slight facelift .
Mitsubishi and Chrysler were already working together in the 1980s . In America the Pajero was also available from Dodge and was then called the Dodge Raider .
Statistics show that 91% of buyers order the Pajero with a tow bar.

The first Pajero came onto the European market at the beginning of 1983, while in Japan it was introduced about six months earlier.
It was equipped with a selectable all-wheel drive as standard. There is also an off-road reduction and a differential lock for an extra charge. The front wheels are individually suspended on double wishbones, at the rear on a rigid axle with semi-elliptical leaf springs. The Pajero is the first off-road vehicle to be equipped with internally ventilated disc brakes at the front.
For outdoor enthusiasts, the short version of the Pajero was also offered openly under the name Canvas-Top at the same retail price as the closed version. The original rag roof with three plastic windows has a variety of opening options . So you can roll up both sides and the rear window independently. Some manufacturers also offered hardtops in various designs. The Pajero was successfully used in the Dakar Rally .
Today the vehicles of the first generation have almost completely disappeared from the streets, especially because of rust problems.

The Pajero was offered with the following engines:
- 2600, in in-line four-cylinder with 2555 cm³ displacement and 76 kW / 103 PS (04.1982–11.1990)

Pajero Dakar
In the course of the facelift, Mitsubishi also offered some special models of the Pajero. The limited edition Dakar, which is limited to 50 pieces, is now a sought-after collector's item. Based on the 3-door Pajero, the company GeCo-Raid Sport under the direction of Sven Quandt converted these 50 vehicles. Distinguishing features include the Recaro sports seats in Avus Imola design, the stainless steel side bars and the stainless steel front bar. In addition, all Dakar have a sticker below the air conditioning on which the number of the corresponding model is indicated.

Pajero Classic
Conceived as an inexpensive alternative to the Pajero V60 introduced in spring 2000, Mitsubishi brought its predecessor V20 back onto the market as Pajero Classic in summer 2002.
The vehicle was still available as a three- and five-door model; the entry-level price of 25,950 euros for the three-door and 29,990 euros for the five-door was significantly lower than that of the V60.
The only engine variant was a 2.5-liter four-cylinder turbodiesel with 85 kW / 115 PS, low in emissions in accordance with Euro 3. In contrast to the original V20 series, the Classic was only produced with selectable all-wheel drive, the Super Select all-wheel drive is not available.

The third generation of the Pajero came onto the German market in April 2000.
In contrast to its predecessor, the Pajero V60 was equipped with independent suspension on the front and rear axles and was only available with the all-wheel drive Super Select 4WD II. The recirculating ball was replaced with a rack and pinion steering.
In autumn 2001, the diesel engine was revised due to changed emissions regulations, which led to a power loss of three kW.
In mid-2003 Mitsubishi gave the Pajero a facelift, which was recognizable by the round instead of square fog lights.

Pajero Classic
In May 2005 Mitsubishi replaced the Pajero Classic V20 with a model of the same name based on the V60. The prices started at 29,990 euros for the three-door and 34,990 euros for the five-door (price of the standard five-door: 43,300 euros, as of February 2006).
The Classic differs optically from the regular model in that it has unpainted front and rear aprons and steel rims. It was only available with a manual five-speed gearbox. The 3.2-l-DI-D with 118 kW / 160 PS, known from the regular V60, was available as a motor. In contrast to the previous model, the V60 Classic has the same Super Select all-wheel drive as the regular model.

The last Pajero, which has been on the market since February 2007 as a three-door model with a short wheelbase or a five-door model with a long wheelbase, has been technically improved and only slightly changed in appearance.
The engines have been revised. The diesel was equipped with common rail injection (118 kW for manual transmission and 125 kW for automatic transmission); In addition, the diesels now have a particle filter on board as standard . The 3.5-liter V6 GDI gasoline engine from the previous model was swapped for the 3.8-liter MPI gasoline engine (known from the Endeavor and Eclipse). The engine output rose from 149 to 182 kW for the three-door and 184 kW for the five-door.
Combined, the standard consumption starts at 9.2 liters (three-door, CO 2 emissions from 244 g / km) or 9.3 liters (five-door, CO 2 emissions from 246 g / km).
In January 2009, the 3.2 DI-D engine was revised and from now on has an output of 147 kW / 200 PS and a maximum torque of 441 Nm. In addition, the standard consumption fell to 7.8 [8.2] liters (three-door, manual transmission [automatic]) and 7.9 [8.3] liters (five-door). This results in CO 2 emissions of 207 [216] g / km or 209 [221] g / km. The short version now meets the Euro 5 emissions standard . The V6 petrol engine was no longer offered in Germany from this point in time.

In July 2012 the Pajero got a slight facelift. The front was modernized with a new bumper and a revised radiator grille. In 2018, the sale of the Pajero in Europe was stopped. Sales also ended in Japan in August 2019. The vehicle is still offered in some markets.
